king of sprint

Chapter 340 Flying Group Battle
8 month 21 day.

Day 2008 of the 12 Olympic Games.

卢梭和尤塞恩在选手等候区围观了200米的决赛。这场决赛在晚上19：00举行，距离4×100的预选赛只有一个小时。

The choice of Usain, the favorite to win the championship, surprised the world's media. The first reaction after getting the news was that Usain was injured?

I believe that when the media and audience see Usain appearing in the 4×100-meter relay team, this worry will disappear, and then there will be another bigger doubt, if Usain is not injured, why did he give up? 200 meters?
Surrender tactics?

But isn’t the 200-meter gold medal the same as the 4×100-meter gold medal?

……

"Abandoning the game." Rousseau chatted with Usain in the waiting area.

"To win you." Usain said naturally, this big black man looked full of fighting spirit and determination today, completely different from the lazy look before.

"But you may not be able to win the 4×100 meters, but you are sure to win the 200 meters." Rousseau said.

That's right.

Although this time in the 08m final of the 200 Olympics.

In the 200-meter final of the last Athens Olympics, the three famous American athletes broke through the semi-final together and met in the final.

However, compared to the previous record, whether it is Sean Crawford, Walter Dix, or Wallace Spilmon, they are not as good as Usain, and it can even be said that they are not as good as series.

As long as Usain plays normally, this gold medal will definitely not go to others.

……

"No, a gold medal is nothing." Usain shook his head, "It's important to win you. In the 100-meter final, I haven't adapted to your rhythm, so I lost to you, but 4×100 won't, I won't. Will run faster and better."

"Stubborn guy..." Rousseau muttered, if it was him, he wouldn't give up the 200-meter gold medal.

In fact, maybe.

……

At 19:30, the men's 08m final of the 200 Olympic Games officially ended.

Among the three players from the United States, Crawford won the gold medal, Dix won the silver medal, and Zimbabwe's Brian Zingai won the bronze medal. If Usain participates, their rankings will be moved down one by one.

……

I indirectly added a gold medal to the U.S. team... Rousseau thought, but so far, mainland China has been far ahead in the gold medal standings, and it is a foregone conclusion that China will surpass the United States in the gold medal standings this year.

……

20:10 pm.

The conference broadcast has already indicated that the 4×100m relay race is about to start.

Like the 100-meter event, this 4×100-meter race has attracted much attention.

There must be [-] to [-] spectators, and the seats are full.

The audience also turned on the TV on time.

Netizens conducted various discussions even earlier.

Rather than saying that the mainland audience loves the only team competition in this sprint event, they want to appreciate the wonderful cooperation of the players in this event.

Rather, 99% of the audience are looking forward to it because the mainland team has the ability to reach the final.

That's right, if there is no Chinese mainland team, the number of people and viewers who pay attention to this project will drop by more than half.

So a preliminaries were also broadcast live on CCTV. After all, the finals are after the preliminaries. The schedule of the 4×100m competition is very simple, so the preliminaries are also very important.

……

In the CCTV live broadcast room.

Huang Jue introduced the record of this 4×100 fantasy team from mainland China.

They dominated the Asian Games.

Overwhelmed the pack at the Osaka World Championships.

As long as they play at the level of competition at the Osaka World Championships, a medal can be firmly in the bag. The only worry is whether they can beat the Jamaican team again and get that gold medal.

Huang Jue said: "...We saw Usain appearing in the 4×100m race. It seems that the statement that he gave up the 200m event because of injury is not true, so this should be a tactic."

The guest said: "I didn't expect that Usain would also use the 'bail-abandoning tactic' and give up 200 meters. In order to ensure sufficient physical strength for the 4×100-meter race, this is a very interesting choice."

Huang Jue said: "But it doesn't matter. The four players of the Continental Relay Team did not participate in the 200-meter event, and they also maintained the best competitive state... Well, we saw that the players of the Continental Team completed the inspection and entered the field."

The guest looked at the screen and said, "Rousseau, Tian Shiwei, Pan Kai and Zhang Zhen are still the winning team in the Asian Games and World Championships."

Huang Jue said: "The Jamaica team consists of Usain, Ball, Nesta Cartel, and Michael Fraser. The young player Blake at the last World Championships in Osaka was replaced by Cartel, who is more mature and stable. "

……

With several relay teams entering the arena.

The conference broadcast also began to announce that the first qualifiers for the 4×100 meters are about to start.

If the men's 100-meter race is a "flying man war", then the men's 4×100 relay race can be said to be a "flying man group war".

Put all the trappers in the world together and decide the winner in the form of a relay. The winner can not only represent his own achievements, but also prove his country's dominance in sprint events. It will bring a very strong sense of honor.

The Continental Team was divided into the first group.

Jamaica was drawn into Group [-].

In the same group as Rousseau and others, there are also the US team, Trinidad and Tobago, and the Jamaica team is in the same group as the Japanese team.

……

Sports events do have a powerful publicity effect on a country.

If this name is not frequently seen in sprint events, there may be hundreds of millions of Chinese people who don't know whether 'Trinidad and Tobago' is a country or a pair of brothers.

This is a small country located in the southern part of the Caribbean Sea. Its population is equivalent to that of a county in the country, and its GDP is similar. The main output is oil, but the people are not rich. It is purely because of race advantage.

……

The results of the Japanese team are also good.

There is a result of running within 38 seconds.

……

Now the Trinidad and Tobago team and the Japanese team are also paying attention to the Continental Team. In terms of performance, they are the challengers, and the Continental Relay Team is the king.

……

The promotion rules for the 08×4 meters in the 100 Olympic Games are as follows: the top three in each group will enter the final, and among the remaining teams, the two teams with the best results will be selected, making a total of eight teams.

……

21:22 on the evening of the 15st.

With a time of 37 seconds, the mainland team successfully broke through and entered the final with the first place in the group.

In the second group of qualifiers just five minutes later, the Jamaica team ran 36 seconds and also advanced to the final with the first place in the group.

In these two qualifiers, strong teams have qualified. The only accident was the US team. An accident happened during the handover process of the second and third bats, and it was a pity that they lost their qualifications for promotion.

　Third watch~nope
